Daily concerns:

Protecting the brand and reputation of the organization in the face of evolving threats should be of the utmost importance in this role. A data breach or leak of assets is simply unacceptable to leadership.

Mitigating the potential of a breach in the face of decentralized locations, a mobile workforce, mobile devices, cloud computing and business partners should be a constant concern to protect your organization from threats coming at all angles.

Effectively understanding and communicating risks to C-level leadership and executive board members to ensure they will have a clear understanding of where and why resources are being dedicated to protecting the organization.

Meeting compliance mandates and addressing guidelines that the organization is required to adhere by.

Consequences if no action is taken:

Damage to reputation, market share and stock valuation due to a breach in infrastructure or a leak of critical. Whether this is due to a lack of meeting compliance mandates or the misallocation of resources.

Without the ability to determine where the next risk to the organization will come from because you do not have the proper visibility or communication lines set-up within your security teams to pinpoint threats.

Unable to communicate risks effectively thus leading to a lack of funding for project. Executive leaders do not give the proper attention to serious security issues, as they cannot understand risks to the business.

Fines or penalties imposed because the organization does not meet specific mandates; or they organization may be compliant but has still not done enough to be secure.
